I want a cigarette REALLY BAD!! I got angry at my teenage daughter and threw the remote control so hard, it broke into pieces. I'm scared, frustrated, & angry. How do you meditate when your kids won't leave you alone? I'm so irritated right now, I just want to start screaming and never stop....i'm glad I can come here & vent.

Deep breaths Marie. Take a shower. Read a book. Watch a movie. Take a nap. Use your coping skills. Post. Helping others helps you to help yourself. Drink ice water ... through a straw. Sugar-Free hard candy. I hope you and your doggie are ok. Hope neither of you got hurt.

JenJan, Hell Week is Really Horrific - sorry about those tempers flaring but that will happen! Sounds like you need to take a walk, or breathe through it. Let you kids know to go easy on you right now, they really have a hard time understanding why we can be so touchy! It will get better - maybe take yourself & daughter out for some ice cream for that ONE WEEK reward???

Marie - Post this on a new thread so everybody can respond. Get some real deserved rest, but at the same time it is not a bad thing to cry it out sometimes...sometimes we just need a good cleansing cry. Just don't smoke! Take some deep breaths, lie down and think about relaxing all the parts of your body starting with you toes and working the way up to the top of your head. We are here for you!

jenjan, Scream!!! It's OK! Throw the remote control (just make sure there's nobody in its path). Cry, beat your pillow! Do whatever you have to do... [B]JUST DON'T SMOKE![/B] This will pass! I'm glad you came here first to vent! That's a good thing. Take some deep breaths and calm down... when this is over, and you haven't smoked, you'll be sooooooooo happy! Trust me! Crave the Quit!

jenjan is quiet now. The nicodevil is sneaky and powerful. We are more powerful. We can make a decision to stay smoke free; yipee!
